MEarth’s 1 acre garden produces over 10,000 pounds of organically grown produce every year. Over 8,000 pounds of that organic produce is donated to local families facing food insecurity, and the rest is used in our community and educational programs to teach the importance of healthy eating and sustainable food systems. 

Each week, MEarth donates fresh, organically grown produce to over 200 families in Big Sur and Carmel Valley experiencing food insecurity. We maximize our impact by partnering with The Big Share and Carmel Unified School District to reach these families directly.

CSUMB Service Learners, Monterey County Works Green Cadre participants, students, and community volunteers help plant, grow, and harvest the organic produce that is donated.

Community members can also access our fresh, organic produce through our pay-what-you-can Farm Stand at MEarth events.

Help us Grow

MEarth is working to increase our growing capacity by adding additional planter beds in our garden and utilizing another greenhouse so we can donate even more produce to the community, while educating local youth and families on sustainable growing practices and the importance of healthy eating.
